- T2A Enhanced
- Codes and Colors Reference
-
- {+} : Registered Version Only
-
- Command Codes:
-
- [ ~ ] (tilde) Screen is cleared whenever this character
- is encountered in the text.
-
- {+}[ ^ ] Cause's the given color to be in blinking mode.
- Place directly after the color code you want to blink.
-
- {+}[ ` ] (Left apostrophe) Inserts code to disable aborting
- with the 'S' key.
-
- {+}[/nn] Tells T2A to read the next character(s) (must be digit(s))
- and write that number of PAUSE characters to the
- file. The maximum value allowed for nn is 30, any value
- greater will be forced to 30.
- See the doc regarding the pause values.
-
- [ % ] Waits for Enter key. Waits until user presses the ENTER
- key. Allows you to type your own prompt in text. Put this
- directly after the prompt, eg: HIT YOUR ENTER KEY%
-
- [ @ ] This is the critical code. When this code is encountered
- the next three (3) characters are read as the color code
- to be applied. It is IMPORTANT that the color code be entered
- as a 3 digit number. So the codes shown here need to be
- zero padded. So color 3 would be entered as @003 and color
- 21 would be entered as @021 and so forth. If the color to
- be written is NOT zero padded to 3 digits, unpredictable
- results will appear, more likely, T2A will abort with an
- error message telling you the code is inncorrect!

-
- Control Key Codes: ( SYSTEM VARIABLES )
-
- Ctl-A : Current Message Area Ctl-P : Minutes left Online
- Ctl-B : User First Name {+}Ctl-Q : Todays Date
- {+}Ctl-D : User Full Name {+}Ctl-R : Day of Week, Long Form
- {+}Ctl-E : Users Handle Ctl-S : Current Time
- Ctl-F : Users Location Ctl-T : Systems Last Caller
- Ctl-H : Date of First Call Ctl-U : Number of Active Msg's/area
- Ctl-L : Date of Last Call Ctl-V : Number of Users
- Ctl-K : Users Birth Date Ctl-W : Total System Calls
- Ctl-N : Subscription Expire Date {+}Ctl-X : Turn 'Continue' Prompt ON
- Ctl-O : Sub Expires in ## Days {+}Ctl-Y : Turn 'Continue' Prompt OFF
-
- Switches: (All two of them....) Upper -or- Lower Case OK!
-
- {+} /i = Do NOT create the ASCII file.
- /a = Do NOT create the AVATAR file.

- Color Codes
-
- Colors that are not of a good viewable combination have been left out.
- Testing was done on both a CGA and a VGA color monitor. Numbering of
- codes follows that of the Pascal Color Attribute convention. Numbers
- 1 through 127, less the poor quality combinations, for a total of
- 96 Foreground/Background color combinations.
-
- NOTE: I have not used the numbers that were skipped, its possible they
- may be added in at a later date. So you will see instances of the
- code going from say 15 to 18.
-
- *** Remember: zero pad to 3 digits!!! ***
-
- The Color Codes on the next page are grouped in Numerical order,
- under specific Background Colors.
